The meaning of food in my life.

Blog entry number 2 Food is just something that I need to get through the day. In my house hold food is not that important ,we just grab something to eat,because of our busy schedule. Being in a family of ten its hard for us to sit and have a meal together,reason being, we are always busy.We mostly eat cereal or grab a fruit on the way out,weather its school or work, even on the weekend when everyone is at home we are so busy preparing for the coming week,doing shopping,washing, homework and ironing.we also go to church on Sundays which would take the whole day,because we are all active in church,after we go home,its just time to go to bed.when we do have time to cook, it would be ones a month.my sister who is oldest would do the shopping,she knows how to get deals,by negotiating with the vendors,sometime when she comes home ,and show us what she got and how much she spends,we love her more.I am the one who do the cooking.I always cook"Ackee and Salt fish." This is our favorite dish,It is our national dish.By the way we are Jamaicans.Even though we don't spend much time together as a family,we never forget Christmas.Every years we make sure that we have a special meal on that day,everyone always cook some that we love and can do.We invite most o our friends and family over,we al3ways look forward for holiday.My parents always relax on that day,even if they want to help ,we think its our duty to treat them if its even once a year,they don't like it but they always listen to us.I love Christmas because this is the time we as a family spend together.
